The five coins included in the Big Five series were each struck from one ounce of 99.99% pure gold in proof quality and show the portraits of those animals known worldwide as the "Big Five": elephant, lion, rhino, leopard and buffalo.
The Buffalo: The culmination of the Big Five series honours the Buffalo, featuring an incredibly limited mintage of only 500 coins worldwide. The Cape or African buffalo (Syncerus caffer) is a grazer, known for its habitat preference for swampy regions and shaded grasslands. A defining characteristic of this remarkable creature is its magnificent, curved horns, which can span up to an impressive 1.5 meters. As a distinguished member of the "Big Five," the buffalo was once on the brink of extinction due to extensive big-game hunting, but it has since made a remarkable recovery, showcasing the resilience of this iconic species.
On the reverse side of every coin within the Big Five series, you'll find a unique design element: two halves of each magnificent animal, ingeniously coming together to form a captivating close-up portrait when two coins are aligned side by side. When several coins featuring the same motif are arranged in succession, they beautifully unite to reveal the full majesty of the entire pack.
The strictly limited Big Five Buffalo 1oz gold coin is delivered in the original wooden box and includes a certificate of authenticity from the South African Mint.
